Data Projectors - Resolution

This is a measure of how accurately an image will be projected. It is measured in pixels - the dots which make up the image. More pixels means more precise image quality (although note that the projector ought to match its source - a high resolution projector can actually look worse than a lower resolution one if it has to scale the projected image). Projectors are designed to operate with computers, so their resolutions match computer screen resolutions, i.e. SVGA or 800 x 600 pixels, XGA or 1024 x 768 pixels, etc. The most common standard now is XGA, and it is perfectly adequate for most applications.
